Can you give us a brief overview of Mozello as a company and its backstory?
Mozello was founded in 2013, but the idea for a simple, easy-to-use website builder and eCommerce platform had been on my mind for years before that. I had been working in eCommerce and website development since 2000, gaining experience in selling online, building websites, web hosting, and content management systems. At one point, I realized we could create a platform that made it so effortless that anyone, regardless of technical knowledge, could build a website or online store without worrying about hosting, programming, or complex uploads. At the time, there were already a few website builders available, but after testing them, we found they were either drag-and-drop based, too complicated, lacked proper mobile support, or had clunky interfaces. Even though competition existed, we believed we could create something better—simpler, more intuitive, and faster for entrepreneurs who needed to bring their businesses online. Back then, it wasn’t yet a given that every business needed a website or an online store, so we saw an opportunity. We spent a year developing the platform and launched it in 2013. While we haven’t become the biggest website builder, we have carved out our own niche. Mozello remains one of the easiest, most straightforward website builders that delivers quick results, even for users with zero experience in web design, coding, or domain management. That’s been our guiding philosophy from day one, and we continue to stick to it.What is the process of creating an online store with Mozello?
The process of creating an online store with Mozello is incredibly simple. You just go to Mozello.com, click the “Create Website” or “Create Online Store” button, enter your email and password, and that’s it—you’re immediately taken to the online editor. From there, you can start customizing your store by choosing a design, style, and layout. Everything is done through our visual, so what you see is what you get—there’s no coding involved. You can add products, change colors, fonts, and design elements with just a few clicks. If you need assistance, we offer step-by-step video guides, tutorials with screenshots, and blog articles on everything from SEO to online marketing. We’re not just providing an easy-to-use tool—we’re building a community with resources to help users succeed. Realistically, you can build a fully functional online store within a few hours or even in one evening if you’re focused. If you have a large inventory with hundreds or thousands of products, it may take a bit longer, but Mozello has everything you need to get your store up and running quickly.What specific benefits do you offer to your clients that set you apart from your competitors?
I believe that the biggest benefit we offer is speed, and that speed comes from simplicity. There are no lengthy onboarding processes—anyone can get started within minutes, and the results can be achieved much faster compared to other tools. Sure, Mozello may have a smaller feature set, but we focus on quick results, making it an ideal choice for entrepreneurs who want to get online fast. Mozello is designed to be incredibly user-friendly, allowing users to create a website or launch an eCommerce store faster than most other platforms. Unlike some competitors that rely on complex drag-and-drop systems, we focus on quick, hassle-free setup. Another major advantage is lower fees—both in terms of monthly costs and the fact that we have zero platform fees. Unlike Shopify and other platforms, Mozello lets you choose any payment gateway without adding an extra percentage to your sales. This is a huge benefit for sellers, as they can work directly with providers like Stripe or Braintree without paying extra platform fees. Additionally, we include a free domain name for the lifetime of the subscription, not just the first year, as many competitors do. This makes Mozello a cost-effective option for businesses that are just starting out and want to avoid large upfront investments. Being a smaller website builder company also allows us to offer a more personalized approach to customer service. There are only two people between our customers and the CEO, meaning better communication and faster response times. Unlike big corporations where bug fixes or feature requests can take months or years, our feedback loop is much faster. If a customer reports an issue, they can simply email or call us, and in many cases, we can fix it within minutes. We also don’t rely on AI chatbots—our customer service is handled by real people who focus on providing solutions quickly and effectively. Additionally, we are an EU-based company, which brings additional advantages. We offer built-in multilingual support—no plugins or extra coding required. This is a huge benefit in Europe, where businesses often need websites in multiple languages. Our system also includes localization for 19 interface languages, with unlimited language options for websites and online stores. Moreover, being based in the EU means we ensure full compliance with EU regulations, including cookie policies, privacy management, and the latest accessibility requirements. We also provide better integrations with EU shipping and payment platforms, making Mozello an ideal choice for businesses operating in Europe. To summarize, Mozello differentiates itself through unmatched simplicity, better financial value, personalized customer service, built-in multilingual support, and strong EU compliance and integrations—all of which make it a powerful yet easy-to-use website-building solution.What pricing plans do you offer and what are the differences between them?
We offer three pricing plans: Free, Premium, and Premium Plus. Our Free plan is designed for getting familiar with the system. It provides a fully functional website, but you can’t connect a custom domain name—instead, your site will have a Mozello subdomain. This plan is great for testing the platform risk-free before committing to a paid plan. The Premium plan is best for standard websites. It includes all the features needed to build a professional website, but online shopping features are limited. With an annual subscription, Premium costs €9 per month. For those looking for full eCommerce capabilities, we offer Premium Plus at €18 per month (annual subscription). This plan unlocks unlimited products, discount codes, integration with multiple payment gateways and delivery platforms, and other eCommerce features that create a seamless shopping experience for customers. Our pricing strategy is simple and straightforward—Free, Premium, and Premium Plus, making it easy for users to choose the plan that best fits their needs.What can we expect from Mozello going forward?
Mozello is constantly evolving. Even though we are a small company, we are committed to improving our platform every year. Looking ahead, one of our biggest upcoming features is a fully integrated booking system. This will enable businesses like beauty salons, hotels, restaurants, car rentals, and many others to offer reservations directly through their websites. Unlike third-party plugins or external integrations, this system will be natively built into Mozello, ensuring seamless functionality and ease of use. This expansion is a direct response to customer demand, as booking services have become one of the top three most requested features. We expect to roll this out within the next year, allowing businesses not just to sell products but also to offer bookable services across a wide range of industries. At Mozello, we remain dedicated to providing an all-in-one, user-friendly platform that helps entrepreneurs and businesses succeed online, and we’re excited about what’s coming next!To learn more about Mozello, you can visit www.mozello.com
